<i>It's springtime for Hitler and Germany</i>
I have a story about this. One spring, the drama club at my high school performed <a href="http://books.google.com/books?id=tUyAolA39OUC&lpg=PP1&ots=1aTn4QE-fK&dq=i%20never%20saw%20another%20butterfly%20raspanti&pg=PP1#v=onepage&q&f=false">I Never Saw Another Butterfly</a> for the students in the school district. One of the actresses was a sweet girl, but not known for being the sharpest izmail in the drawer, so some of the cast and crew decided to play a little joke on her.
When she came into rehearsal one day, the director (who, for better or for worse, was in on the gag) told her that they'd decided to add a musical number to jazz it up a little bit (it's a rather dry play, as you might imagine). The cast and crew proceeded to perform Springtime for Hitler, complete with hastily-organized, swastika-shaped choreography. Highly inappropriate? Yes.
She bought it.comment:www.metafilter.com,2010:site.98818-3433648Wed, 22 Dec 2010 07:05:41 -0800uncleozzyBy: ThePinkSuperherohttp://www.metafilter.com/98818/I-saw-a-preview-of-SpiderMan-so-I-am-calling-this-a-Repiew#3433652

So many great quotes, here's one of my favorites:
<em>It was awesome because he acted like he hated Spider-Man, but the actor actually likes Spider-Man quite a bit because why would he ask to be in the musical if he really hates Spider-Man?</em>
*****
<em>Her performance was awesome, but her part that was made was not as good as she was acting--like she was doing a better job playing that than the part was.
Astute observation. I have seen SO MANY SHOWS in NYC where this is true.</em>
This is very true in television and film, too.

From the 'good analysis':
<em>To those using the arguments: "Well, Peter Pan flies lots of people, and they never had these sorts of problems," or "Cirque does stuff like this all the time, and they never had so many accidents," or the general "These things are done all the time. Why is this production having so many problems?" I say: you aren't paying attention, and have no idea what you are talking about.</em>
Yeah, well I say you are full of it.
These other productions were better planned. The risks are controlled because they know what they are doing. They have risks, but they are managed, controlled risks.
This production is over its head. They are not in control and as a result several people are getting hurt.comment:www.metafilter.com,2010:site.98818-3433979Wed, 22 Dec 2010 10:26:43 -0800eye of newtBy: Halloween Jackhttp://www.metafilter.com/98818/I-saw-a-preview-of-SpiderMan-so-I-am-calling-this-a-Repiew#3433984
<em>Batman is very rich, but he has had a very sad life, and his parents died, and he hates Christmas because his parents died on Christmas.

I don't get all the wire problems, the Peter Pan musical was doing flying scenes by wire in 1954. Shouldn't this be something Broadway just knows how to do by now?comment:www.metafilter.com,2010:site.98818-3433987Wed, 22 Dec 2010 10:29:05 -0800ScooBy: hippybearhttp://www.metafilter.com/98818/I-saw-a-preview-of-SpiderMan-so-I-am-calling-this-a-Repiew#3434003
<em>I don't get all the wire problems, the Peter Pan musical was doing flying scenes by wire in 1954. Shouldn't this be something Broadway just knows how to do by now?</em>
Peter Pan's wire tricks, as typically staged, are pretty simple point-to-point flying moments. The Spiderman rigs are 4-point rigs made to allow for extended and complicated fight choreography and multiple flight paths. Plus, there's a LOT of flying in this show, not just a peak moment or two.
I think the big difference between this show and a lot of Cirque productions is 1) Cirque shows often have 18-24 months of stunt development, something which Spiderman (despite nearly a decade of pre-production) hasn't had, and 2) most development for Cirque shows would take place away from the audience, while Spiderman has had paying preview audiences for weeks, and will continue to have while it works out the kinks.
It is possibly that Taymor has bitten off more than she can chew with this production, but if Spiderman can pull it all together and actually become a show rather than a joke and an itemized medical bill, it'll be one of those "production for the ages" kind of shows.
Personally, I hope they make it.comment:www.metafilter.com,2010:site.98818-3434003Wed, 22 Dec 2010 10:37:59 -0800hippybearBy: coolguymichaelhttp://www.metafilter.com/98818/I-saw-a-preview-of-SpiderMan-so-I-am-calling-this-a-Repiew#3434054

You know, if there were a musical about Spider-Man in the Marvel universe it would probably be something like this. Peter Parker would be appalled by it, but J Jonah Jameson would like it and briefly become infatuated with all things Spider-Man. Then some kind of villain would blow the whole thing up, despite Spider-Mans best efforts and surrounded by comedy confusion of real and fake. Once the dust settles Parker will be a little relieved that the show is ruined, and Jameson would go back to blaming Spidey for everything.comment:www.metafilter.com,2010:site.98818-3434295Wed, 22 Dec 2010 13:54:28 -0800ArtwBy: fearfulsymmetryhttp://www.metafilter.com/98818/I-saw-a-preview-of-SpiderMan-so-I-am-calling-this-a-Repiew#3434329
